ACCORDING to the New York Snn
We are living IN fearful times If the
startling revelations that have lately
been made Of the fearful and vicious
dangers to which women have been
subjected in this country, are true.
1t says: They are decoyedinto dens
Of vice in the midst Of thriving
populations, into lonely towns on
the frontier, or are taken out Of the
country altogether. The revelations
refer to are hideous, but the at
tention that is now given to this sub
ject should be most benefcent, and
we doubt if anything has beenss more
potent in exciting it than the ex-
posures made two years ago in the
Pail Nall Gazette.

A COMET YBAR.-From so many
recent discoveries of comets in this
country and Europe, this might be
termed a comet year. Whether any
important significance can be at
tached to these celestial phemomina
or not, we are unable to say. Prof.
f. Il. Barnard, director of Wander
bilt University Observatory, at
Nashville, Tenn, announces the
discovery of another comet by him
in Cygnus on Monday. Att o'clock
A. NJ. Monday its position was,
right ascension 10 hours z minutes
and As seconds, declination north
rs degrees "a minutes. 1t is NOV
ing very slowly to the east. Three
comets have been discovered within
five days. The southern comet is
going to be very bright.

REFERRING to the extravaganza
in dress, the Bdlttm0reaa truthfully
says: "In nothing is extravaganza
so apparent in the present age as in
female apparel. Those whose means
are meagre find it almost impossible
now to dress according to the con-
ventional requirements without in
curing a debt they may not be able
to discharge when due; but before
they will be called old-fashioned or
out of style they risk everything to
keep up appearances, and plunge in
to excuses that often prove fatal to
all domestic repose. So long as this
is done there is no chance for re-
form; and until certain indepen-
dence and moral courage defy the
tyranny of fashions rule, this evil
must be deplored.
"What a mighty revolution there
would be were women to consult
their own individual tastes and
means in the matter Of dress, with
no concern as to what Madame
Grundy will say about their appear
ance. The independence and rare
good sense of the sex is manifest in
everything else pertaining to their
affairs, why then should they betray
such a lamentable weakness in this
one particular? Not until they free
themselves from such a thralldom
will the extravaganza which all SEN
sible people must see and decry, be
classed among the evils which are no
more"

Allegea oure for HvdronhoIIa.

Alleged Cure for Hydrophobia.
A correspondent writes that for thirty
years past farmer named Fry residing
near Allentown, Pa, has treated hydro.
phobia with nnvarying success, the fol-
lowing being his simple method: The pa
tient is to be kept free from excitement
of every Sort especially from that caused
BY the visits of sympathizing friends
The medicine is to be prepared by taking
one ounce of elecampane root, powdered;
one tablespoonful of madden and one
quart of new milk and boiling them alto
gether slowly lin water bath if possible
until reduced to pint. The dose is one
wine glass full once day for three days;
then intermit three days; then repeat and
iutermit again aud again repeat; that is,
nine wine glasses full are taken in all and
there are three intermissions.
In support of the efficacy of this treat
ment it is stated that thirty years ago
Mr.. Reed and Daniel Mershon were Bit
ten at Germantown by rabid dog that
Mr. Reed was treated by an eminent ply
stefan and died of hydrophobia, while Mr..
Mershon under Fry's treatment never
suffered at all. A young man named ia
CODY and daughter-in.law of John
Boyer, at the corner of Mill street and
Chelteu avenue, Germantown, under SINH
lar treatment, recovered from the dread
full disease about twenty years ago, and
in 1868 policeman, so far gone with by,
drophobia as to be held in the carriage in
which he was driven through German
town to Mr.. Fry's residence, was also
treated with entire success. A number
of additional cases are quoted, in all OF
which the remedy described is claimed to
have effected complete cures.

The preachers desk was hung with

by this time preacher and congrega-
ton are wrought up to the highest pitch
OF excitement, and the sermon is liter,
ally chanted in the weirdest of melodies,
the whole congregation, between each
rythmical pause, bursting forth in a
heart-rending wall, wild, yet singularly
musical.
AT the close of his sermon the
preacher gave out the "leben hummer
an fifty" hymn, two lines of which the
congregation sang, with unconscious
blasphemy:
"Il meet my sweet Exeuser there
And tell him that he lies"
The next hymn contained the follow
ing line:
Thus spake the sheriff, and forthwith"
When " collection time" came the
congregation melted away in very
surprising manner, some people sliding
out Of the front, others out of the back
of the church, most mysterlously.

The disease which is prevailing among
horses to an alarming extent in South
and West Jersey. and which is pronoun-
ced by the veterinary surgeons to be
spinal meningitis, is still spreading, and
is creating alarm among owners of hor-
ses throughout the State. DR.. w. B..
Miller, State Veterinarian, said on Sun
day afternoon that the disease had APP
peared in Camden, there being two cases
reported to him during the day. The
disease is the worst in Atlantic and Cape
May counties, but is also prevailing in
Cumberland and Burlington counties.
No cases have been reported thus far to
DIR. Miller from Salem or Gloucester
counties. The number of horses that
have died since the disease made its APP
pearance-less than two weeks ago-is
estimated at nearly 600.
